For example, the law prohibits guns at events where there is a large
gathering of people, like neighborhood street festivals. But it allows
people with guns to walk through a public gathering on the way home, to
work or to their car.

That means, according to some
firearms instructors, that people could legally walk through the crowd
at the South Side Irish Parade with a gun tucked in their belt but they
couldn't hang around and watch the performances.

And although the law forbids guns in public parks, nothing in the
statute prohibits someone from carrying a gun on a trail or bike path
that goes through a park.
In other words, firearms instructors said, it's OK to arm yourself
while riding a bike through the Cook County Forest Preserves, but you'd
better not get off your bike to use the bathroom.

"It's like a Byzantine maze," said Colleen Lawson, owner of Lawson
Handgun Institute, a firearms training facility on the North Side. "It's
possible to get through it without breaking any laws, but it's tricky."

Bottom line - carry at your own risk in Ill-Annoys, especially if you have a IL state CCW permit. Criminals and gang members will get a pass, as they have in the past.

There are serious penalties for violations. The first offense is a Class
B misdemeanor, which has a maximum penalty of 180 days in jail and a
$2,500 fine. A second violation is a Class A misdemeanor, which could
result in up to a year in jail, a $2,500 fine and a six-month suspension
of the concealed carry license. A three-time offender could get the
same jail sentence, the same fine and a permanent revocation of the
concealed carry license.

Illinois allows residents of other states carry a concealed firearm in
their vehicle if they are can legally carry a firearm in public under
the laws of their state or territory of residence and are not prohibited
from owning or possessing a firearm under federal law.

So, ANY Wisconsin resident can carry concealed in their vehicle, since Wisconsin does not require a CCW to carry a gun in public - just if you want to "conceal" it.

Smart people, those Chicago Demonrats!

Please note - you carry a gun in the People's Republik of Ill-Annoys at your own risk...even with an Illinois CCW...

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of minority religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of minority speech, or of the press; or the right of minority persons peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Any majority religion or group is specifically excluded from this Amendment.

Amendment II.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to call 911 or join the National Guard, shall not be infringed.

Amendment III.

No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law. Law to be decided by the Commander in Chief on the fly.

Amendment IV.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized, unless the local police authority decides there is something he or she does not like about the situation, or there's an anonymous call-in that makes someone think there's something going on that someone might object to.

Amendment V.

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Clarification: "presentment" should have been "presentiment". Precrome was definitely in the mind of the Founders when this was written - they just lacked modern spell checkers.

Amendment VI.

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence- except in cases that might prove embarrassing to the Establishment, in which case, star chamber courts are mandatory.

Amendment VII.

In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law. This Amendment shall not apply to any suit brought by a governmental authority, especially in matters of ordinance or traffic violations.

Prejudging by the media is specifically protected by the First Amendment, with guidance from official Government sources.

Amendment VIII.

Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted, except in cases of racism or thought crime. Special attention is to be given to crimes of imagination perpetrated in the public education venue.

Amendment IX.

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people, especially the right to demand rights not enumerated here.

Amendment X.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. Since "the people" is the definition of the government of the United States, this amendment is essentially meaningless.

The age of crackpot zero tolerance nonsense needs to come to an end.
As a child, I played cops and mobsters, cowboys and Indians and army
vs army. If I was a child today I probably would have been locked up on
someone’s terrorism watch list as would most of us over the age of 25.

What has led me to this belief? Because the Imagination Nazis are
out in force, goosestepping all over imagination and childhood play.
Banning toy guns apparently isn’t good enough for some “educators” like
the South Eastern School District in Pennsylvania.

This school district has the tagline: “Providing Progressive Education to Strengthen the Global Community”.

With a motto like that is it any wonder that the powers that be
suspended a 10 year old boy, Johnny Jones, for pantomiming a bow and
arrow?

Now comes a Demonrat from New Jersey, Sen. Robert Menendez, angry that Target could screw up and expose millions of credit-card purchasers to fraud. He's got a sure-fire plan to fix things.

Let the SEC "fine" companies that lose customer's credit card or other personal information to hackers.

Great. The customers lose to the hackers, the stores get a federal fine - that goes right into the federal black hole, and the stores in turn raise prices to recoup their fine.

Everyone is happy, except the cheated customers, who still must deal with their deflicted credit card, and anyone who shops, as the prices go up to cover the new legal expenses.

I've got a real simple law that they could pass - make any retailer or credit-card company that loses customer information liable for every fraudulent charge and credit score loss suffered by any customer, along with a punitive fine payable directly - and tax-free - to the cheated customers. The stores might still raise their prices, but I'll bet they will be real careful with private information, knowing that they will have to pay for all the purchases a hacker might make, as well as paying the cheated for their time and trouble.

And, the federal government will never see a penny of that money.

Now - how could we make that idea work with outfits like the FDA and the EPA?

Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted announced Wednesday that his
office found 17 non-citizens illegally cast ballots in the 2012
presidential election -- and has referred the case for possible
prosecution.

The alleged crime would be a notable case of voter fraud in a key
swing state. By law, only American citizens are allowed the privilege of
casting ballots for the nation's leaders.

And here in Wisconsin, it's an imposition on "the poor" (who need government ID to get welfare and all the other free stuff!) to ask them to show citizenship to vote.

And Nancy Pee-Lousy keeps telling us shipping illegals back to where they came from is "just wrong" = primarily because they can be counted on to vote Demonrat?

What are they afraid of? That we will learn the truth about JugearsCare?

I would download the files and keep them, in case the people who wrote this ever figure out it's easily available online - by anyone...

I'm sure that every Chicago policeman, including my father, if he was still on this plane, would be surprised to know that as part of their duty, they were participating in the furtherance of murder...

Political appointees like McCarthy do not speak for the police - they speak for the mayor and the ruling political party - and the Demonrats will NEVER admit the fact that more guns in the hands of law-abiding people will bring a decrease in crime.

Celebrating "only 400-odd" murders as a good thing is insane. None of the guns involved in those murders acted alone - each was wielded by a criminal.

In 1941 we had a Socialist President who ignored the Constitution and forced through a bunch of legislation that has resulted in lasting damage to America.

The Japanese took advantage of our apparent weakness to attack Pearl Harbor. Unfortunately for them, FDR was still an American, and our people were able to switch from a "peacetime" mentality to a wartime footing overnight. America still had a massive industrial base, and millions of skilled laborers, many who were out of work because of the Great Depression. We put together the greatest military force the world had ever seen and defeated both the Japanese and the Nazis, and after, we helped the world rebuild.

Ever since the 1960s, America has enacted law after law all intended to fix social ills or to "protect" the environment. The main result of these laws has been to institutionalize poverty and drive heavy industry offshore.

Today, we have a Socialist President that makes FDR look like a Reagan Republican, and we have foreign enemies who would love to see us brought low. Our military is being systematically stripped of leadership and hamstrung by social engineering.

Will history repeat? I doubt Jugears is capable of leading us anywhere but into Hell.

Thank
you
for
contacting
regarding
your
support
to
impeach
and
remove
President
Obama
from
office.

Our
nation's
founders
created
a
system
of
checks
and
balances,
providing
for
congressional
oversight as a
fundamental
part
of
ensuring
co-equal
branches
of
government.
I
took
an
oath
of
office
to
uphold
the
Constitution.
I
take
that
sacred
pledge
very
seriously.

The
president
and
vice
president
of
the
United
States
also
take
an
oath
of
office,
swearing
to
"...preserve,
protect
and
defend
the
Constitution
of
the
United
States."
This
commitment
and
obligation
is
so
fundamental
to
our
democracy
that
our
nation's
founders
proscribed
that
oath
in
our
Constitution.

Article
II,
Section
4
of
our
Constitution
clearly
delineates
that
the
removal
of
the
president
and
vice
president
for,
is
for
among
other
things,
"high
crimes
and
misdemeanors."
Impeachment
is
the
ultimate
power
that
Congress
has
to
prevent
and
punish
abuse
of
power
from
the
Executive
and
Judicial
branches.

President
Obama
and
Vice-President
Biden
in
no
way
qualify
for
the
strict
provisions
detailed
in
our
Constitution
for
impeachment.

It
is
important
that
the
integrity
of
our
checks
and
balances
remain
in
place
through
the
careful
use
of
the
constitutional
powers
given
to
each
branch
of
government.
I
do
not
believe
in
using
the
ultimate
power
that
Congress
has
to
check
the
Executive
and
Judicial
Branches
for
partisan
ends.
Please
be
assured
that
I
will
continue
to
protect
the
constitutional
prerogatives
of
Congress
and
guard
against
excess
power
from
any
branch.

Once
again,
thank
you
for
contacting
my
office.
It
is
important
for
me
to
hear
from
the
people
of
Wisconsin
on
the
issues,
thoughts
and
concerns
that
matter
most
to
you.
If
I
can
be
of
further
assistance,

One wonders which Constitution she is referring to. She has certainly voted for enough un-Constitutional legislation in her time in the House and as a senator.

"President

Bowing down to foreign princes and kissing their hands?
Giving material aid in the form of tax money stolen from US citizens to our country's sworn enemies?
Intentionally violating the laws he himself signed?
Directly attacking the Bill of Rights - especially advocating direct violations of the Second Amendment?

Biden might not have done anything actionable - being an idiot and a tame parrot isn't a high crime or misdememanor..
